    Abstract: Examples include a fluidic die. The fluidic die may comprise an array of fluid actuators, an actuation data register, a mask register, and actuation logic. The actuation data register may store actuation data that indicates fluid ejectors to actuate for a set of actuation events. The mask register may store mask data that indicates a set of fluid actuators enabled for actuation for a respective actuation event of the set of actuation events. The actuation logic may electrically actuate a subset of the fluid actuators based at least in part on the actuation data register and the mask register for the respective actuation event.

    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to evaluating nozzle condition of a plurality of nozzles. In one example, drive bubble detect (DBD) test results for a set of nozzles from among the plurality of nozzles are stored by a print head in a test result register, where the test result register is provided onto the print head. Further, status bits of a result-ready register provided in the print head are set to a predetermined value by the print head responsive to storing of the DBD test results in the test result register. Further, based on the setting, the DBD test results are obtained by a control unit, from the test result register, for evaluating the nozzle condition.
